Platform Expansion and Network Growth
Freightos continued to strengthen its
digital freight marketplace in Q3 2024, facilitating increased transactions and expanding its global buyer and seller network.
| ● | Transactions:
Freightos facilitated 339.1K transactions in Q3 2024, representing a 26% year-over-year
growth. This surpassed management's guidance of 323.5 - 332.5K, demonstrating the continued
adoption of Freightos’ platform by freight forwarders, importers, exporters, and carriers
globally. |
| ● | Carrier
and Buyer Growth: Freightos expanded its carrier network to 55 carriers, up from 39 in
Q3 2023. The number of unique buyer users on the platform also grew by 14% year-on-year,
reaching approximately 19,700 by the end of the quarter. |
| ● | Gross
Booking Value (GBV): The total value of transactions processed on the Freightos platform,
or GBV, reached $217.5M, reflecting a 35% year-over-year increase, significantly exceeding
the anticipated range of $198.0 - 203.5M. |
“The KPIs we delivered this quarter
reflect not only the continued growth of our platform, but also the critical role digital solutions are playing in the transformation
of the freight industry,” said Zvi Schreiber, CEO of Freightos. “As more buyers and sellers join the platform and transaction
volumes rise, we see clear network effects driving further engagement. At the same time, our SaaS solutions are tightly integrated with
the platform, enhancing the value we deliver to customers. These efforts are not just about financial growth - they are essential to
supporting the broader digitalization of global freight, helping our industry become more efficient, transparent, and connected with
the Freightos platform playing a fundamental role.”

Glossary
We have provided below a glossary of
certain terms used in this press release:
| ● | Carriers:
Number of unique air and ocean carriers, mostly airlines, that have been sellers of transactions.
For airlines, we count booking carriers, which include separate airlines within the same
carrier group. We do not count dozens of other airlines that operate individual segments
of air cargo transactions, as we do not have a direct booking relationship with them. Carriers
include ocean less-than-container load (LCL) consolidators. In addition, we only count carriers
when more than five bookings were placed with them over the course of a quarter. |
| ● | Unique
buyer users: Number of individual users placing bookings, typically counted based on
unique email logins. The number of buyers, which counts unique customer businesses, does
not reflect the fact that some buyers are large multinational organizations while others
are small or midsize businesses. Therefore, we find it more useful to monitor the number
of unique buyer users than the number of buyer businesses. |
| ● | GBV:
Total value of transactions on the Freightos platform, which is the monetary value of
freight and related services contracted between buyers and sellers on the Freightos platform,
plus related fees charged to buyers and sellers, and pass-through payments such as duties.
GBV is converted to U.S. dollars at the time of each transaction on the Freightos platform.
This metric may be similar to what others call gross merchandise value (GMV) or gross services
volume (GSV). We believe that this metric reflects the scale of the Freightos platform and
our opportunities to generate platform revenue. |
| ● | Transactions:
Number of bookings for freight services, and related services, placed by Buyers across
the Freightos platform with third-party sellers and with Clearit. Sellers of Transactions
include Carriers (that is, airlines, ocean liners and LCL consolidators) and also other providers
of freight services such as trucking companies, freight forwarders, general sales agents,
and air master loaders. The number of transactions booked on the Freightos platform in any
given time period is net of transactions that were canceled prior to the end of the period.
Transactions booked on white label portals hosted by Freightos are included if there is a
transactional fee associated with them. |
